Stone terraces and Pendle weather
Most older homes are stone terraces, rarely painted outside, so exterior work centres on doors, windows and gutters. Wet Pennine weather means jobs are planned around dry spells.
Terraced houses are affordable and many are being renovated, so decorators often take on full interior redecorations after building work.

Burnley painting and decorating FAQs

How soon can I paint after replastering?
When the plaster is fully dry – often a few weeks – followed by a mist coat.
Exterior painting in North West England: what to plan for
The North West is one of England's wetter regions, and the Irish Sea coast is exposed to westerly winds. Decorators here plan exterior work around dry spells, and masonry has to be properly dry before painting. Inside, older terraces can have damp or salts in the walls that need sorting before a new finish will last.
Most homeowners can repaint the outside of their house without asking anyone. The exceptions are listed buildings and some conservation areas, where a change of colour or finish may need the council's approval. More on exterior painting.
